Dear All,
        I would be very interested to hear peoples views on test methods for
conformal coatings. Specifically;

(i)     Which, if any, test methods do you use?
(ii)    How effective do you think these test methods are?
(iii)   In what ways do you think testing of conformal coatings could be
improved?

In particular, I would like to hear of  peoples tips/experiences with
the Cross Hatch adhesion test.

Many Thanks.

Carl Levoguer
